*’color’ is the characteristic of ‘human visual perception’ described through ‘color categories’, with names such as…*

‘red’

‘yellow’

‘purple’

‘blue’

.

(this perception of ‘color’ derives from the ‘stimulation’ of ‘cone cells’ in the ‘human eye’ by ‘electro-magnetic radiation’ in the ‘spectrum of (visible) light’)

.

(‘color categories’ and ‘physical specifications’ of ‘color’ are associated with ‘objects’ through the ‘wavelength’ of the ‘light’ that is reflected from them)

(this ‘reflection’ is governed by the object’s ‘physical properties’ such as ‘light absorption’, ’emission spectra’, etc)

(by defining a ‘color space’, colors can be identified numerically by ‘coordinates’)

.

(the ‘RGB color space’ for instance is a ‘color space’ corresponding to ‘human tri-chromacy’ and to the 3 ‘cone cell’ types that respond to 3 ‘bands’ of ‘light’…)

“RED”
(“long wavelength”)
(peaking near 564–580 nm)

.

“GREEN”
(“medium wavelength”)
(peaking near 534–545 nm)

.

“BLUE”
(“short wavelength”)
(peaking near 420–440 nm)

.

(there may also be more than 3 ‘color dimensions’ in other ‘color spaces’, such as in the ‘CMYK color model’, wherein 1 of the ‘dimensions’ relates to a color’s ‘colorfulness’)

.

(the ‘photo-receptivity’ of the “eyes” of other ‘species’ also varies considerably from that of ‘humans’ and so results in correspondingly different color perceptions that cannot readily be compared to one another)

(‘honeybees’ and bumblebees for instance have ‘trichromatic color vision’ sensitive to ‘ultraviolet’ (an ‘electromagnetic radiation’ with a wavelength from “10 nm” (30 PHz) to “400 nm” (750 THz), shorter than that of ‘visible light’ / ‘longer’ than ‘x-rays’) but is insensitive to ‘red’)

(‘papilio butterflies’ possess 6 types of ‘photoreceptors’ and may have ‘pentachromatic vision’)

(the most complex ‘color vision system’ in the ‘animal kingdom’ has been found in ‘stomatopods’ (such as the ‘mantis shrimp’) with up to ’12 spectral receptor types’ thought to work as multiple ‘dichromatic’ units)

(the science of ‘color’ is sometimes called chromatics, colorimetry, or simply ‘color science’)

.

(it includes the perception of ‘color’ by the human ‘eye’ and ‘brain’, the “origin of ‘color’ in materials”, “color theory in ‘art'”, and the “physics of ‘electromagnetic radiation’ in the ‘visible range'” (that is, what is commonly referred to simply as light))
